Volume fraction of CO 2 : x 1 = P * 100 /(P + T + U + V) Volume fraction of CO : x 2 = VCO * 100 /(P + T + U + V) Volume fraction of O 2 : x 4 = U * 100 /(P + T + U + V) Volume fraction of N 2 : x 5 = T * 100 /(P + T + U + V) These are dry gas volume fractions.

11 Air-fuel Ratio: Fuel Lean Mixtures :  Fuel-rich Mixtures:  >1 Equivalence ratio:

12 Partial Pressure of air in Intake System In a SI engine, the presence of gaseous fuel, moisture in the intake air and residual exhaust gases reduces the intake air partial pressure below the mixture pressure. In a CI engine, the presence of moisture in the intake air and residual exhaust gases reduce the intake air partial pressure below the mixture pressure. For a mixture:

13 Fraction of air in the Cylinder The residual gas fraction in the cylinder during compression is determined by the exhaust and inlet processes. Its magnitude affects volumetric efficiency and engine performance directly. The residual gas fraction is a function of inlet and exhaust pressures, speed, compression ratio, valve timing, and exhaust system dynamics. The residual gas fraction is defined as:

14 Residual Gas Fraction: Effect of Speed Intake

15 Residual Gas Fraction: Effect of Valve Overlap Intake

16 Residual Gas Fraction : Effect of Compression Ratio Intake

17 Actual Mass of air per Cycle : Volumetric Efficiency Volumetric efficiency a measure of overall effectiveness of engine and its intake and exhaust system as a natural breathing system. It is defined as: If the air density  a,0 is evaluated at inlet manifold conditions, the volumetric efficiency is a measure of breathing performance of the cylinder, inlet port and valve. If the air density  a,0 is evaluated at ambient conditions, the volumetric efficiency is a measure of overall intake and exhaust system and other engine features. The full load value of volumetric efficiency is a design feature of entire engine system.

18 Volumetric Efficiency of A Cycle The volumetric efficiency is a function of Intake mixture pressure p i. Intake mixture Temperature T i. Fuel/ air ratio (F/A). Compression ratio r v. Exhaust pressure, p e. Let m is the mass of gas in the cylinder at the end of intake stroke.

19 Full Load Overall Volumetric Efficiency Overall volumetric efficiency is affected by following variables. Intake and exhaust manifold and port design. Intake and exhaust valve geometry, size, lift and timings. Fuel type, fuel/air ratio, fraction of fuel vaporized in the intake system, and fuel heat vaporization. Mixture temperature as influenced by heat transfer. Ratio of exhaust to inlet manifold pressures. Compression ratio. Engine speed. The effects of many of above variables are quasi-steady in nature. Their impact is either independent of speed or adequately function of speed.
